NOTE: -- In view of the amended school law requiring Algebra and Literature for 
second grade county certificates and, in addition thereto, one branch of science 
with one of history for first grade county certificates the County School 
Commissioners' Convention at Jefferson City last December agreed that grades 
in these subjects, obtained in the Summer Schools of the University and State 
Normal Schools, should be accredited on teachers' certificates without further 
examination, provided said Summer Schools left the common school branches 
to the County Institutes. The State Superintendent of Public Schools extends a 
like courtesy to applicants for state certificates.
